well. im an idiot is how. my gf at the time wanted to get into web design so I bought her some program/software and handed her my debit card to buy the site from namecheap.com, advising her to put it in my nameOP - might I inquire how your old web guy stole your .com domain? If you were the one who bought the domain, you should technically still be listed as the `Registrant` (aka Owner) of that domain. If you go to Whois Lookup, Domain Availability & IP Search - DomainTools and type in yourdomain.com, it should show you the WHOIS record. If you`re listed as the Registrant, you can get it back.
well she did not and I never realized this until after we broke up and she crashed the site and started holding it hostage
so I purchased the .net
I filed a formal complaint twice with that company. both times denied because it isn`t in my name, its in hers..they told me I can submit to buy it- not happening, been there.... so I filed fraudulent charges with my bank, since I had the statement showing that company charged me but the bank only allows that for up to 60 days they tell me, and this was about 2 years after the fact. civil court would be a waste of my time, money and effort so I just gave up
yea, I know. rookie mistake. live and learn.
